How to Make Magic Play Dough:

Stir well before cooking. The corn flour will initially be hard to stir, but it will all come together and turn into a runny liquid.

Put it onto the stove and cook until it turns into a thick mush – and becomes really hard to stir.

It will still be a little more sticky than the play dough will end up once it is cooled and kneaded.

Set aside for a few minutes and knead when cool enough to touch.

Split it into as many colors as you would like and knead in the food coloring.

TIP**

A tiny tiny amount of food coloring goes a long way – I usually add one or two drops. If you are working with gel food coloring then stick a knife point into the food coloring and go from there. Adjust the color to preference!

If you are going to make only one color, add the food coloring to the water before you start cooking – it is so much easier this way – rather than kneading in at the end!

If you are going to make more than one color, make white play dough and then at the end knead in the food coloring.
